Financiamento Florestal Sob Medida: Menu de Mecanismos Financeiros

The report maps 30 international financial mechanisms totaling US$ 25.9 billion aimed at tropical forests, highlighting a significant funding gap compared to the US$ 66.8 billion annual need identified by UNEP. It analyzes the roles of various actors, the prevalence of result-based payments like REDD+, and the geographic concentration of funds in Latin America, specifically Brazil and Guyana.

• There is a substantial gap between current financial flows and the capital required to realize the full potential of tropical forests. While the Climate Policy Initiative identified US$ 18.2 billion flowing to the Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (Afolu) sector in 2023, the UN Environment Programme (UNEP 2025) estimates a need for US$ 66.8 billion annually until 2030.
• The 30 mapped financial mechanisms represent US$ 25.9 billion in planned, issued, and disbursed resources. However, 31% of these funds have not yet been issued or disbursed, with a particularly high proportion of pending mobilization for private actors (88%) and mixed funds (57%).
• Financial mechanisms are split between those with single and multiple objectives. Half of the 30 mechanisms focus on one goal: conservation (US$ 2.6 billion), restoration (US$ 2.2 billion), or deforestation reduction (US$ 1.3 billion). The other half pursue multiple goals, with five mechanisms covering all three objectives for a total of US$ 11.4 billion.
• Result-based payments, specifically jurisdictional REDD+ programs, dominate the financial landscape, totaling over US$ 15.3 billion, which is more than half of the total mapped financing.
• Geographic access to these mechanisms is highly concentrated. Brazil and Guyana have the highest access, with 24 and 19 mechanisms respectively. Only three of the ten countries with the highest carbon capture potential—Brazil, Cameroon, and Colombia—have significant eligibility for the mapped mechanisms.
• The report identifies a structural challenge in conservation funding: standing forests generate limited financial returns unless linked to complementary economic activities or carbon incentives, leading to a higher reliance on public funding for this objective.
